Wal-Mart Enlists Bloggers in P.R. Campaign
Wal-Mart is a big Republican organization so the notion they would follow the Republican model for disinformation is not the least bit surprising. What I don't get is why they keep thinking they are going to get away with it? We live in the age of instantaneous communications, why would you think you could just lie like that? Oh wait...because the Republicans get away with everyday without a single consequence! We've entered an age in American history where criminality has become the norm of existence. Only those that are willing to lie, cheat and steal are going to be allowed to succeed. It's a sad commentary, but just what we've all come to expect from the Republican establishment.

These aren't traditional, organic bloggers. These are people they hire to blog about them in a positive light. They are employees in essence. Most of these people have never blogged a day in their lives before they do this stuff for whatever company, in this case Wal-Mart. There's a big difference.
